So besides computer related items what else is there?

Flip Video Camcorder

8

The Flip Video Camcorder has to be one of the most popular digital camcorders out there, simply because they made it so easy for you to shoot and record video. Right now there are 4 different Flip’s available, the Ultra, UltraHD, Mino, and MinoHD. You can check out our reviews of the Flip Ultra and Flip MinoHD. The thing that really surprised me about the MinoHD was how small it is and still records quality HD video. It is small enough that it will easily fit in your pocket. The UltraHD sells for $150 and the MinoHD sells for around $160.


TomTom One GPS

9

Many people thing you need the most expensive GPS out there, but after using 3-4 different GPS’s over the past 2 years the only thing that really mattered is the it worked. With that said the best bang for your buck GPS would have to be the TomTom One GPS. This GPS is nice and small and does it’s job. Not only that unlike other GPS companies TomTom’s maps are not stored on a SD card they are stored on the device itself and you can easily download new maps and other features right onto the device. You can get a TomTom one for under $100 online.


Canon PowerShot SD990 IS Digital Camera

10

Out of all the compact digital camera’s available right now the SD990 IS from Canon has to be the best. It is great for just point and shoot photography, but unlike many compact digital camera’s it has its own manual controls. This 14.7 megapixel camera also has a 3.7x optical zoom and a large 2.5-inch LCD on the back. This camera is quite expensive though, starting at around $299 online. But it is probably the best compact digital camera out there, especially will all the options that it does give you.

Samsung DualView Digital Cameras

11

Samsung is not a name you immediately think of when it comes to digital cameras, but that might change when you take a look at their new DualView digital cameras. Each camera not only has an LCD on the back, but one on the front as well. So when you are taking a photo with someone you know that it is going to turn out good. Right now Samsung has the TL225 for $349 and the TL220 for $299. The only difference between the 2 is the LCD size.
